Everyone on the payside is a member.

I have an Orange Pack pocket calendar, does that count?

I've received a number of solicitations to be a member so the thought counts, right? Unfortunately not in a position I can make that sort of five year commitment but I think the program makes sense. They've done a good job on social highlighting lower level donors too, which is a marked change.

The first rule of Legends Society...

Hard to stomach giving back to a university with a $70k a year price tag and a majority of alums still paying back loans. $25k donation for sports is for wealthy people that light money on fire in the backyard for fun. Few Cuse alums I know have that cash on hand. Maybe when I retire or die.

Average donation of about 3000 dollars. And there are most likely a few 100k donations that lower the average

For the things that I criticize the university about, I do need to give props for stepping up their game in athletics fundraising, specifically as it relates to stewardship. That Legends Society site is nicely done. Only thing I would like to see is a couple stories on Legends Society members. More beyond just a "testimonial" quote that you would see on any generic business website.

 

[Orangezoo]

Maybe in 10 years. That said agree it's well done.
